beaten by Santa Monica, and OMBAC... Read More

With all the talk about the Dallas Reds and New Orleans leading the Red
River DI Conference, it's easy to miss the fact that the Houston Athletic
Rugby Club is lurking in 3rd place, with a game in hand over those other
two.
This weekend, HARC takes on a tough Griffins team out of Frisco, Texas. The
Griffins are 2-4-1 but HARC Head Coach Jason Van Wyk said the long trip to
Frisco... Read More

It may not be an earth-shaking result, but Fresno's 27-24 defeat of the
Sacramento Lions is a nice boost to the former DII club as they navigate

A, and moved Fresno to 3-2 in Group B.
"It was a really tough game," said Fresno Coach Frick Fourie. "We worked

beating the Austin Blacks 42-12 and then defeating the Austin Huns 41-25 on
Sunday.

There aren't too many intra-city rivalries that are as passionate as the
Chicago Lions vs. the Chicago Griffins.
NYAC vs. Old Blue and Denver vs. Glendale might be as good, but that's
about it. Most intra-city rivalries feature two teams that don't like each
other much, but one team that wins almost all the time. The Lions against
the Griffins is a back-and-forth game that has no... Read More

Last week was a big one for the Chicago Griffins. The club didn't have its
best year last season, and opened up this year against a tough Palmer
College in Iowa.
Battling without all of their top players, and in oppressively hot, muggy
conditions, the Griffins pulled out a key 27-22 road win.
"Getting a win on the road in the first week was huge... Read More
